A group of teachers specialized in copyright has Presented a brief amicus In support of the authors who demand a goal for supposedly to train their AI models in electronic books without permission.
The brief, presented on Friday at the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, the San Francisco division, calls for the right -wing defense “an impressive request for greater legal privileges that the courts have granted to human authors.”
“The use of copyright work to train generative models is not ‘transformative’, because using works for that purpose is not relevant to use them to educate human authors, which is an original main purpose of all of all [authors’] Work, “reads the report.” That the use of training is not “transformer” because its purpose is to allow the creation of works that compete with the works copied in the same markets, a purpose that, when it is pursued by a profit company as a goal, also makes the use undeniably “commercial”. “
In the case, Kadrey v. Meta, authors, including Richard Kadrey, Sarah Silverman and Ta-Nehisi Coates, have alleged that Meta violated their intellectual property rights by using their electronic books to train the models, and that the company withdrew the copyright information from those electronic books to hide the violation of the assumptions. Meanwhile, Meta has affirmed not only that its training qualifies as a fair use, but the case must be dismissed because the authors lack position to demand.
Earlier this month, the American district judge Vince Chhabria allowed the case to advance, although he dismissed part of it. In his ruling, Chhabria wrote that the accusation of copyright violation is “obviously a sufficient concrete injury for the position” and that the authors have also “adequately alleged that intentionally target intentionally eliminated CMI intentionally [copyright management information] to hide the infringement of copyright. “
The courts are weighing a series of demands for the copyright of AI at this time, including the demand of the New York Times against Openai.
